to me, imap is the obvious mail access protocol for ivm devices to
use. other protocols will certainly work, but imap is the best choice
(it's a standard protocol, supports multi-accessed mailboxes, and
has a remote-store model). given this, i think the language in the
draft ("SHOULD") is appropriate. imap is not mandated, but
strongly recommended.
